This meeting was the first of a series that will be conducted by a committee of the Society of Christian Endeavor connected with the First Congregational church under the guidance of the pastor of the church, Rev. Burdett Hart, with the assistance of Rev. MT. Mosman, the city missionary.

New Lease of Life.

When one has been suffering the agonies of a severe attack of rheumatism, neuralgia sciatica. and relief comes, it seems as if 8 new lease of life had been granted. Such have bee Il the feelings of thousands who, af- ter trying physicians and numberless reme- dies, have used Athlophoros and found to their great joy that this medicine really did cure these diseases.
 am glad to say Athlophoros is the only medicine that ever gave me the relief so much prayed for by one suffering from the rheumatism in it's worst form. It has done wonders, not only for myself, but for sever al ne1ghbors I recommend and praise It as the only cure for rheumatism.

Entertainments. EDWIN BOOTH

One of the largest and most brilliant audi ences of the season greeted the appearance of Edwin Booth in '"Richelieu" at the Hyperion Theater last evening. The role, if not the strongest in MT. Booths repertoire, is cer- tainly the most popular one and was selected by the request of many of our theater- goers. At the last appearance of this great actor here he was guilty of gross carelessness in his rendition of two unimportant characters -"Don Cesar de Bazan" and "Ruy Bias" :" But whatever may have been his faults on that occasion he more than atoned for them by last evenings performance. He was call ed before the curtain at the conclusion of each act and twice he was obliged to respond to double encore. In the third act, where the crafty statesman succeeds in his quickly devised scheme to "eke out the lions skin with the fox's," cheers were mingled with the applause. Throughout the remainder of the play Mr. Booth seemed to feel that he had won the enthusiasm of his auditors and they deserved his best efforts. The supporting company was very good, Miss Emma Vaders as "Julie de Mortimer" and MT. John Malone as Adrian de Mauprat" deserving special mention. MT. Owen Faw- cett was as funny as usual in the part of ''Dr. Beringhen" and MT. T. L. Coleman played the thankless role of Louis XIII" without provoking a smile-quite rare oc- currence. The costumes and armors were all that could be desired and the scenery belong ing to this theater was so arranged as to serve it's purpose. Between the acts the or chestra, which was enlarged for the occasion by the addition of a trombone and a snare drum, discoursed the same old tunes that have become so familiar to all who have attended the Hyperion this season. It is hoped that next season MT. Booth will make longer and more frequent visits than this season. The box office receipts last evening amounting to $2, ,275 would seem to justify such course. MT. BunneIl is to be congratulated upon the great success of the initial dramatic performance at this theater under his management.

A Musical Event in Hartford Last

About twenty New Haven people went to Hartford on the 6:20 limited express last evening to listen to the oratorio of "Eliza- beth" by the Hosmer Choral union of that city. This was the third concert by this so- ciety this season. The soloists were Miss FL Ia Earle of New York, soprano: Miss Hattie Clapper of New York, alto; Mr. Elder of New York, tenor; MT. Babcock of Boston, bass. Professor Waldo s. Pratt was con- ductor.
 The chorus was exceedingly well rem dered and the so1oists were all to1erably sat isfactory. The orchestra was, perhaps, the least appreciated part, owing, probably, to the fact that they were selected from vari- ous sources for the occasion and had but lit- tie opportunity to practice together. The concert took place in the Asylum Hill Con- gregational church and was crowded, many being obliged to stand during the perform ance. Among those present from New Ha- ven were Professor Fowler and MT. J. c. Griggs of the Amphion society.

The plaintiff desired to go with the trial with the eleven jurors and because the defendants counsel used every effort in objection to it's being done, and taking advantage of every technicality, leaves little doubt that the defendant will make overtures to settle the case out of court

1twa.ProbabIv a Murder.

BOSTON, Mass, May 11.-Last Sunday the body of a man apparently lifeless was brought to the City hospital by four men who stated that the mans name was Shep- ard, that he lived in South Boston, that he had fallen in fit on the street and that they had brought him to the hospital for treat ment. There appeared to be nothing sus- picious about the men or their statements and they were allowed to depart without giv- ing their names OF addresses. After they left, however, the suspicious of the doctors were aroused, as the patient was found to have received severe injuries about the head and body His skull was fractured and there was strong evidence of foul play. The man suffered greatly and died during the night. An investigation was begun by the police and it was soon discovered that the name and address left by the four men at the hospital were bogus. No definite ill., formation as to the dead mans identity was learned until o-day. when it was ascertained that his real name was William Maxim, but the facts concerning his residence, etc., could not be found out. He was about twenty-five years of age
